The device will send a location message automatically. You can get the coordinates. If the device does not search any information of location, it will send No data to the cell phone. Example: Current position! Lat:N ,Lon:E ,Course:131.99,Speed:0.00Km/h,Date Time: :35: SMS URL# to the SIM number of device. The device will send a location Google Map link.

15 If the device does not search any information of location, it will send No data to the cell phone. Example: < :36>http: 2. Via platform Go to the platform website offered by dealers to check your vehicle location. 6.3 Wire cut-off alarm When the electricity supply of device is cut off, it will activate cut-off alarm. In this case, the device will send related SMS to the specific numbers and dial the numbers in circles. If nobody answers, the call just keeps 3 loops at most. At the meantime, the device will upload SOS alarm data to the server. And it will send: Cut Power!<Date Time: :53:06>, Note: The specific numbers should be preset, please refer to Low battery alarm When the device is only working with battery, once the internal voltage of battery is less than 3.7V, device will send low battery alarm SMS to specific number and alarm on platform. Low battery alarm SMS content example: Attention!!!Battery is too low, please charge. Which means the battery is too low, inform user charging it in time. Note: The specific numbers should be preset, please refer to Vibration alarm The vibration alarm function is off by default. To activate this function, please send the following

16 command: SENALM, ON# The alarm will be sent to both the service platform and SOS numbers.
